Paper Players Challenge #79

Good morning every one. It’s a perfect stay inside and craft day here on Long Island. It’s raining and I think it’s supposed to rain all day. I’m a little late with my Paper Players Challenge this week, but I will get it in just in time. This week they ask you to do a clean and simple card with a tag.

I decided to use three tags. They look like they aren’t spaced equally and I did that on purpose. I wanted a little pause after you read Inspire and Create… then Dream. The words are from the Loving Thoughts Stamp Set from the Occasions Mini. They are stamped on Very Vanilla Card Stock and punched out with the Extra Large Tag Punch. I rubbed the edges against the Island Indigo stamp pad for a little definition. The flower is from the For All You Do Stamp Set that I got when I first signed up to be a Demonstrator. I haven’t used it in a while and forgot that I had it. It’s perfect for when you need something tall and slim for the side of a card. The images are stamped in Island Indigo and Crumb Cake. A piece of Crumb Cake Card Stock ran through the Big Shot with the Square Lattice Textured Impressions Embossing Folder gives it a nice background and looks great mounted on the Island Indigo card base. Some 3/16 Metallic Brads in gold finish off the card. I hope that you enjoyed today’s card and as always, thanks so much for stopping by!

Sale-A-Bration Workshop

Good Thursday morning to everyone! One more day until the weekend! A wonderful friend of mine, Isabella, hosted a Workshop at her beautiful apartment in Manhattan yesterday. She had eight of her friends join us for a fun filled afternoon of card making. We made three cards, a Valentine’s Day card, a mini Valentine’s Day card and a Birthday gift tag. The Valentine’s Day card uses Pretty In Pink and Whisper White Card Stock and some Riding Hood Red Ink. The cupid is from the P.S. I Love You Stamp Set and was punched out using the 1 3/4″ Circle Punch and then it was backed by the 2 3/8″ Scallop Circle and popped up on some Stampin’ Dimensionals. The Perfect Polkadots Textured Impressions Embossing folder makes for a fun backdrop and we used the Scallop Edge Punch for a little added detail. The little hearts are from the Candy Conversations Wood Mount Stamp and they were punched out using the Small Heart Punch. I find that using the Word Window Punch to punch out your sentiment makes lining it up a little easier and it fits perfectly on the Modern Label Punch.

For the mini Valentine’s Card we used some Naturals White and Riding Hood Red Card Stock with some Elegant Eggplant Ink. I love the way the Petal Card Punch looks like a tiny envelope if you leave one of the flaps open. The hearts are from the I {Heart} Hearts Stamp Set and they were also punched out using the Small Heart Punch. For the final touch, the sentiment is from the P.S. I Love You stamp Set.

Last but not least is the Birthday tag. A nice quick project using Lucky Limeade and Very Vanilla Card Stock, some Poppy Parade Ink and a small piece of the Everyday Enchantment Designer Series Paper from Sale-A-Bration. The cute little birthday bear os from the Host(ess) Set Tagtastic. We used to the Decorative Label Punch to punch it out and it’s finished!

Everyone had a great time and it was so nice to meet everyone. I hope that we can do it again soon!

Mojo 225

Good Wednesday morning to everyone! I have to say that I am really liking the winter that we are having in NY. It was 56 degrees here yesterday! I’m not a fan of the cold so it works for me. This weeks Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge is kind of neat. It is made up of four short rectangles and one long rectangle in the middle…

I immediately knew what I wanted to do. I bought the Peekaboo Frames Bigz L Die (Item # 124587) from The Holiday Mini Catalog and I haven’t used it very much. I really should use it more because you can do some neat things with it. It’s a carry over item so you can still order it. I used just two colors, Blushing Bride and Very Vanilla Card Stock and Blushing Bride Ink. I cut out four of the smallest doors from the Peekaboo Frames Die and mounted them on 1 3/4″ Vary Vanilla Squares. Then I punched out some more squares with the 1″ Square Punch and stamped the smallest hearts from the Take It To Heart Stamp Set. The sentiment on the outside and the love you on the inside of all of the doors is from the P.S. I Love You Stamp Set. Both of those sets are in the new Occasions Mini Catalog. The background was embossed with the Texturz Plates Backgrounds 1 with the Big Shot. For the perfect finishing touch a little strip of Blushing Bride 3/8″ Pleated Satin Ribbon right across the middle. I’m not a huge ribbon fan but this is really beautiful. I hope that you enjoyed today’s card and thank you so much for stopping by!

Stampin’ Up! products used:

Card Stock: Very Vanilla and Blushing Bride Smooth Card Stock

Tea Shoppe Stay

Morning peeps! I hope that you all had a nice weekend. Mine was good, although it goes way too fast. For today’s card I was inspired by Mary Fish (www.stampinpretty.com). She always has such clean modern designs. The card stock is Very Vanilla and Island Indigo. I stamped the three tea cups and sentiment from the Tea Shoppe Set in the Occasions Mini catalog and cut them out with my paper trimmer. I purposely made the slightly different sizes for a little added interest. The corners were then rounded with the 3/16″ Corner Rounder and mounted the on Island Indigo and I adhered them to the Vintage Wallpaper Textured Impressions Embossing Folder background with some Stampin’ Dimensionals. A piece of Very Vanilla 1/4″ Grosgrain Ribbon adds a nice touch across the card with the little bow. The shapes give it the modern feel but the texture in the background keeps it a little vintage. I hope you like the card and thanks for stopping by! Have a great day!

Valentine’s Mini Card Box

Happy Sunday everyone! I hope that everyone had a great weekend and is enjoying today. I’m listening to Winston, my dog snore sleeping on the bed. 🙂 For today’s project I was inspired by my good friend Sandy’s Valentine’s box post earlier in the week (www.stampwithsandy.com). She is so talented and clever and the set that she designed is beautiful. Mine is a little less complicated and would work great for some Valentine’s for the kids. I used some Cherry Cobbler, Chocolate Chip and Very Vanilla Card Stock, sounds like such a yummy combination! The box was made using Sandy’s tutorial with the Simply Scored. The top has a piece of Very Vanilla that I ran through the Big Shot using the Texturz Plates Backgrounds 1. I’m really liking these for the subtle effect that they produce. The stamped heart is from the Take It To Heart Set in the Occasions Mini and was cut out using the Hearts Collection Framelits Dies and mounted on a Chocolate Chip heart cut out the same way. The sentiment was punched out with the Word Window Punch and backed by another stamp from the P.S. I Love You set and then punched out with the Modern Label Punch. For the cards inside use stamps also from the P.S. I Love You set and were punched out with the 1 3/8″ and 1″ Circle Punches and popped up on a Stampin’ Dimensional. I ran some Cherry Cobbler through the Big Shot with the hearts from the Adorning Accents Textured Impressions Embossing Folders. The Chocolate Chip heart was punched out with the Heart To Heart Punch. Some Mini Square Envelopes complete the project. Thanks for coming by and enjoy the rest of your day!

PPA 127 & Sneak Peek

Good morning everyone. It’s snowing here on Long Island this morning. I’m not a fan of snow! It’s perfect day to play with my Stampin’ Up! stuff though! For this weeks Pals Paper Arts Sketch I used some more new items from the Sale-A-Bration Catalog. Only four days left until Sale-A-Bration starts!

The base of the card is Very Vanilla. I used the Fresh Vintage Stamp Set from Sale-A-Bration (January 24th) stamped in Pool Party and then I punched it out with the Ornament Punch and cut a little bit off the bottom to make it look like a vase. I sponged the edges with Crumb Cake to give it a little more definition. I used the Texturz Plates for a subtle background paired with some of the Everyday Enchantment Designer Series Paper also from Sale-A-Bration. The Little Leaves Sizzlits Die and the Boho Blossom Punch create a great bunch of flowers in Calypso Coral and Peach Parfait. Some Basic Jewels Pearls add a little elegance to the flower centers. I used Mary Fish’s tutorial from the other day (http://www.stampinpretty.com/2012/01/new-ppa-sketch-and-1-minute-to-wow-video.html) for the sentiment. She always has such great ideas. The edges are also sponged with some Crumb Cake. A little Scallop Trim Border Punched piece of Peach Parfait completes the card. Thanks so much for stopping by and enjoy your day!

Send Me Soaring Birthday

Hello everyone. It’s Friday!! I hope that everybody had a good week and is all ready for the weekend. Today’s card is a birthday card for my brother. His birthday is Sunday but I know that he already got the card. Masculine birthday cards can be a little challenging. I try to keep the flowery stuff off the card but still make it fun. The Send Me Soaring Stamp Set in the Occasions Mini is great for all kinds of cards. I used some Baja Breeze Card Stock for the background. The clouds were stamped in Not Quite Navy Ink and the I used an eyeshadow applicator to color them in with some Whisper White Craft Ink. The kites are stamped in More Mustard, Cajun Craze and Not Quite Navy. I cut them out and then used some thin string for the kite string. I hid the ends behind the sentiment which is from the Happiest Birthday Wishes Set. The Brother is from Family Reunion and both are stamped in Not Quite Navy. I think the card is masculine but still playful at the same time. I hope that like today’s card and thanks so much for stopping by!

Up In The Air Thanks & Sneak Peek

Good morning peeps. I hope everyone is having a good week. I keep checking Stampin’ Up!’s FaceBook page to see what’s going on in San Antonio, TX at Leadership. Oh how I would like to be there! Today’s card is a note card Thank You. I used some new paper (to me) that I got. It’s called Naturals White and I’m liking it! There are little flecks of fibers in the paper and it gives it that nice organic look. I used the Up In The Air Host(ess) Set from the 2012 Occasions Mini Catalog. It really is one of my new favorite sets. The image is stamped in Concord Crush and the I colored in the leaves with some Lucky Limeade Marker. The greeting is from the set Outlined Occasions from the new Sale-A-Bration Catalog out next week. It’s FREE with any $50 purchase. It’s just one of the great items that you can get for free with every $50 you spend. I wanted to color in the stars and realized that I didn’t have a Concord Crush Marker. Not to worry, I used a Blender Pen and the ink pad! It works great for coloring in a small area. For the finishing touch, some Lucky Limeade Organza Ribbon from the Everyday Enchantment Ribbon and Brad Pack also from Sale-A-Bration. A small dab of Crystal Effects in the middle of the bow makes sure that it won’t come undone. I hope you enjoyed today’s card and as always thanks so much for stopping by!

The Paper Players Challenge #78

Hello everyone! I hope that you all are having a good week so far. It was a little rainy here yesterday but as long as it’s not snow I’m happy! This week I decided to give another challenge a try. The Paper Players has some really great talent. I was excited to sit down and make my card using the colors for this week: Calypso Coral, Blushing Bride and Pear Pizzaz. I immediately thought of the new Designer Series Paper Everyday Enchantment from the 2012 Sale-A-Bration Catalog (starts January 24th). I love the colors in the paper and it actually prompted me to get all of the In-Colors for 2010-2012 and 2011-2013. The greeting is from Outlined Occasions also in the Sale-A-Bration Catalog. I stamped it in Pear Pizzaz and then used a Blender Pen to color in the confetti around the word Celebrate. The flowers are from the Mixed Bunch Stamp Set available in the 2012 Occasions Mini. They coordinate with the Blossom Punch and the 1″ Circle Punch. I also punched out some Pear Pizzaz Card Stock to back the flowers. The brad in the middle is from the Everyday Enchantment Ribbon and Brad Pack from Sale-A-Bration too. There are so many great items in the catalog I can’t wait for you to get your hands on them too! I popped the flowers up on some Stampin’ Dimensionals and framed the greeting with some more Pear Pizzaz Card Stock. I really like the color combination and hope you like the card. Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!
